Hillary!'s job is now done.

The Won was re-elected, in part because nobody heard the story of a black man leaving four white men to be slaughtered by jihadis. Hillary! was complicit, along with The Won's cabinet, and most of America's press corpse.

The Won is not promoting Vaginas.

The
Won ran partly on the issue of vaginas. The vagina issue voters
flocked to him. As long as he delivers on his vagina promises, vagina
issue voters have no reason to complain.

His promise on vaginas was to keep them safely maintained and
non-productive at government expense (which is, when you think about it,
his promise on all issues). He made no commitment to actually promote
vaginas.

Vaginas are never satisfied, are they? And, of course, they can't take care of themselves, so I suppose we're stuck with their whining.

Until we go satisfy them, good and hard, I suppose.

Which is not yet a government function, as best I can tell.

And could it ever be? And if it were, would government satisfy?

If it didn't, whole universities would give themselves over to understanding how to help the government satisfy vaginas.

I'll stop now, but I will observe that vaginas have a lot for which to answer.

NPR, and lying by ommission.

This afternoon, at about 12:20 PM, I caught a bit of the Bob Edwards show on NPR.

The topic was Lisa Jackson, and her imminent departure from the EPA.

To hear Edwards and his interlocutor, Doyle McManus tell the story, Jackson is leaving because she's just completely burned out. No talk at all of her use of fake email addresses to avoid oversight. No suggestion that she's resigning ahead of a scandal. No, it's the stonewalling Republicans who want to poison the air, water, and food supply they also use.

This is how NPR lies: by omission.

Of course, if you're a low-information voter, or exclusively an NPR listener - but I repeat myself, you'd never know, would you?
